するものでない。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Thin layers of certain metals on nonconducting substrates are of very important commercial utility value. Thin layers of conductive metals on transparent substrates can be used in electronic displays. Thin layers are used in solar shading and other solar devices to reflect heat and filter solar radiation. A thin layer can reduce the extent of infection caused by a device inserted into the human body if the device is coated with a thin layer prior to insertion into the human body. The thin layer can be used in packaging as a moisture barrier coating. These examples of uses are just a few of the thousands of uses for the thin layer and are not intended to limit its use in any way.

Although electrodeposition electroplating may be utilized, medical devices are often made of non-conductive materials and cannot easily be coated with thin deposit coatings on a commercial scale. Patent No. 4,054,139 suggests that a type of coating deposited by chemical plating is possible, but does not provide a detailed explanation of the method of operation. Patent No. 4,483,688 covers 30% of catheter coatings.

形の不伝導基質に銀を沈着させる技術は公知でない。Since silver is toxic in some environments and expensive, it is preferred to coat the electrically non-conducting substrate with silver in a very thin layer. The coating layer must adhere strongly to the substrate, as defects in the coating can lead to infection and passage of silver into the body. At present, it is a very thin, uniform and transparent layer, l-20
It enables deposition at thicknesses on the order of 0.00 angstroms, forming strong adhesion layers with good mechanical properties,
There are no known techniques for depositing silver on various forms of nonconductive substrates that are readily amenable to large scale commercial production of coating materials.

ランがけするか、その他の方法で表面を処理する。However, in commercial applications, many nonconductive substrate materials require cleaning because the surface is not free of dust and organic matter prior to silver deposition. The surface of such substrates is preferably cleaned by any suitable technique specific to nonconductive substrates. For example, polycarbonate, polyamide, polyvinyl chloride, polyurethane, and polyester are washed with a 5% sodium hydroxide solution at 40° C. for 10 minutes. Polystyrene is 5 at 30-40℃
- Wash with 10% sodium hydroxide solution for 20 minutes. Latex and synthetic rubber are washed in a 3% sodium hypochlorite solution for 15 minutes at room temperature. Ceramics such as aluminum oxide can be cleaned in a 20% sulfuric acid solution for 20 minutes at 60° C., with simultaneous ultrasonic agitation for at least about 5 minutes. Polyimide films can be washed in acetone. The glass can be cleaned in an aqueous solution of 0.5% hydrofluoric acid and 10% sulfuric acid, which gives a slight etching to the glass. ABS polymer at 65-70°C for 5-10 minutes at 350-400g
It can be washed in an aqueous solution containing /l chromic acid and 25% sulfuric acid. These cleaning temperatures are illustrative and not limiting. Cleaning is optionally accomplished by immersing the substrate in a cleaning solution, spraying or plunging with a cleaning agent, or otherwise treating the surface.

重要である。If cleaning is required, rinse the surface thoroughly with demineralized water after cleaning, but there is no need to dry the surface. In a preferred practice, the surface of the substrate is rinsed with demineralized (deionized) water at various points in the process. It is important that the rinsing be thorough, as the transfer of chemicals from one step to the next will interfere with the next step.

Mix each preformulation and dilute, if necessary, to the exact amount to achieve the concentration specified above. Mixing the components together while preparing the solution can lead to instability and premature silver precipitation. If the solution is stored before use, it should be stored in the dark to prevent unnecessary deposition.

る。The silver salts from which the deposited silver is made are easily degraded by visible light, and such light must therefore be excluded from the deposition process. The combination of silver salt and reducing agent used in the dark allows the silver to be colloidally reduced from the salt and deposited on the surface of the substrate. This colloidal state is particularly effective in providing good adhesion of the finished silver film to the substrate surface, biocompatibility, tissue compatibility and non-toxicity.

The silver film is uniformly deposited from the solution in proportions that can be adjusted by the concentration of the silver salt. Approximately 0.015 of silver nitrate at room temperature
At a concentration of g/l the deposition rate is about 5 angstroms per second, but under certain conditions higher deposition temperatures can increase the deposition rate, which is about 7 angstroms per second at room temperature.
It can be as fast as 1-m. If thin layers are required, the deposition temperature is kept low enough to facilitate control of deposition.

ラチナ塩を希塩酸に溶解させることにより調製される。After the deposition is complete, the deposition substrate is removed from the deposition solution and washed with demineralized water, but not dried. At this point, the silver is present as a metallic deposit on the treated surface of the substrate. Although this condition may be used for certain applications, stabilization is preferred to avoid chemical and physical changes during use.
